I was wondering. What are the different techniques of changing a cymbals sound? Not only what changes them, but how. Like does the sound quality change the same way with every cymbal, like will every cymbal have a "lighter" sound than any cymbal. for instance.
Does burying a cymbal under ground for awhile change its tone, and if so how deep do you have to bury it, and how does it change and too what extent?
How is the sound effected when you drill holes in? And how much does the sound change with each hole? And how much does the position of each hole affect the over all tone of the cymbal? Does it make it sound brighter? lighter? And too what extent?
these are all questions I would like everyone on the PDF too answer if anyone has any experience with these situations, or any other sound changes too any cymbals, please post with the situation, and the different outcomes that has come over time.
This thread could even be a "Sticky" thread because it could contain alot of useful information for anyone as time goes on, acting as a guide.
